How about instead of looking at it in terms of trolls and not-trolls, see it as boring people and not-boring people.

Because invariably there are some fun people who are fun because they bust your pickle and when you ban them you end up with a forum that tastes like sandy oatmeal coz it's filled up with boring ass tea-timers.

Main purpose of the forums is to let people discuss things. If a topic is interesting and you hear a lot of different opinions - that's not boring. But when someone posts something like "you're an idiot, you're an idiot too, you're all idiots and I know everything better than you" - there's nothing left of discussion and a thread turns into something like this: http://forums.soldat.pl/index.php?topic=38200.20

This is not exactly my definition of "fun".
"Troll" and "not-boring" are completely different things. There doesn't have to be any trolling and flaming to make things interesting. Here's an example of not-boring, flameless AND trolless topic: http://forums.soldat.pl/index.php?topic=37943.0

it is in the f**king lounge

it is a forum game

it is a thread in which opinions are less likely to collide because they are filtered and accepted only by the author.

And the point is?..

that it blows dicks!

while it fill in for 'content' temporarily, it is in no way unique nor does it have much added value, and completely goes against your earlier argument of having a discussion.

so in short, dicks is what it blows.
(don't take it on yourself though. i vaguely remember you being one of the better fellows back in the... fuck knows when. you got cred.)

Which is exactly what I'm getting at - if you're bored with the forums - just go and find a fun thread like that one, there's no need for trolling and flaming to make things fun.

You're not right.

-Define "you". Is it me you're refering to? Maybe it's a group of people, or perhaps fetuses, who're not even people yet, but wait. I'm not a fetus, therefore I'm not a part of the "you" group, so either you're not talking about fetuses, or me. Speaking of this, let me make a separate topic, where we can discuss whether fetuses are people, and then we can go back here and continue with our definitions.

-Define "right". What is right for you, may not be right for me. Or do you mean the direction "right"? That cannot be right because I see no connection between the uppermentioned word and the topic. You see, the double standard of the double standard that there are double standards, makes me think I am more right than you.

(That's what the forums look like now)

Ban all those blokes who explain themselves too much >:O
